Velocity Curves

The “V” stands for Velocity. Trilian has four velocity curve presets available on the CONTROLS screen. The first curve is linear, then two exponential curves, and the last one is flat. These curves are provided to quickly adjust the dynamic response of the current Patch to your MIDI controller and playing style.

• LINEAR
  
  
  The linear curve is the most commonly used velocity setting. Playing harder on the keyboard will have a direct effect on any parameter that is modulated with velocity in an even and linear way.

• EXPONENTIAL POSITIVE
  
  
  The Exponential Positive curve means that when playing softly not much effect will be heard, but when playing at a moderate intensity on the keyboard the velocity modulation will be more dramatic than with a linear curve.

• EXPONENTIAL NEGATIVE
  
  
  Exponential Negative has the opposite effect of Exponential positive — meaning that it’s better suited for more intense touch and provides the widest musical dynamic range.

• FLAT
  
  
  Trilian will receive the same velocity value with this flat curve. Useful if a totally consistent and predictable result is desired.
